PRO-PLAN
Financial Benefits
The financial benefits from using the PRO-PLAN Pulp Mill Scheduling System will vary from mill to mill, and are dependent on the types of constraints and the method of operation of the mill prior to using the system.
Typical improvements might be:
Better utilisation of capacity
Increased production of 1% of 500 tonnes/day for 350 days @ $200 margin = $ 350,000 p.a.
Better storage management
If there are 10 unscheduled upsets per year, and the storages are 5% closer to optimal levels:
10 x 5% x 500t x $200 = $ 50,000 p.a.
